Popis: In an attempt to prepare a radioviral ligand that was effective both as an antigen in binding to antibody and as a ligand that effectively binds to receptor-bearing cells, inactivated Sendai virus was adsorbed to immobilized fetuin at 4°C and recovered by temperature elevation at 37°C. The eluted virus was iodinated using the chloramine-T procedure and free iodine and labeled virus were separated on a Sepharose 4B column. Radiolabeted virus contained 1000 to 5000 cpm per hemagglutination unit and over 90% of the counts were sedimented following high-speed centrifugation. Radioviral ligand was 80% reactive with immobilized Sendai virus antibody, 70% reactive with sheep red blood cells,and 1% reactive with receptor-negative horse red blood cells. Pretreatment of the cells with neuraminidase completely inhibited the virus binding reaction. The reaction with receptor-bearing cells was competitively inhibited by unlabeled Sendai virus, but not by murine leukemia virus or T-2 coliphage. Radioviral ligand binding to human lymphoblastic cell line CCL-119 was a saturable reaction, a result that demonstrates the absence of virus-virus aggregates. The preparation of an effective cell-reactive radioviral ligand was dependent on the initial purification from immobilized receptor-containing proteins.
